The led bars, do they take 12V or is a resistor needed in the wiring to lower the voltage on them?
Is a resistor needed over the turn indicators to make them blink in a normal fashion (not fast as if one is broken)?

I'm also thinking of retrofitting the LCI tails for a while now but the price of the lights and an additional module is a little over the budget I want to spend on it. So I was thinking of doing it in a similar way as you did. Nice to see it's working out for you.


No resistors needed after proper NCS coding.Now I seeking any original LCI car to see what is the brightness of LEDs strips.

My Ride: E61 5 Series
Default Pre Lci dipped/parking not working after lci tail lights install.

Ive retro fitted, the tail lights on my 61. Everything works OK. The LED bars , break light reverse indicators and fog lamp. All good has been programmed,
but i've i've got an issue on my pre Lci xenons headlamps, where the inner dipped beam does not work. And the car comes up, we ve parking front left and right failure, but the xenon lights as they should.
is there anymore programming that need to be done to sort this out.

I've heard the time creation date needs to be changed

Any help would be great
